Selected pickup city: Pula
Pula anchors the southern tip of Istria, and the first thing most visitors notice is the Roman amphitheatre standing more or less in the middle of town — not tucked away in a museum district, but right where daily life happens around it. A car here is less about the city itself, which is walkable, and more about reaching the rest of the peninsula: hill towns like Motovun, the coastline down to Premantura, and the ferry connections to nearby islands.
The Arena is the obvious stop, but Pula's old town has a smaller Roman forum and triumphal arch worth the extra twenty minutes. Cape Kamenjak, just south of the city, has rougher coastline than the resort beaches closer to town — worth the drive if you want fewer crowds. Parking near the amphitheatre fills up in midsummer, so arrive early or expect to walk from further out.
Istria rewards a loop route: north from Pula toward Vodnjan and Bale, then inland to the hill towns before looping back along the coast. Motovun, perched on its ridge, is popular enough that the approach road can back up in peak season — a weekday morning avoids most of it.
Istrian roads narrow quickly once you leave the main routes, and some hill-town centers restrict vehicle access entirely, so check parking before committing to a route through the old core of any town. Deposit and insurance terms are usually clearer with Croatian coastal suppliers than you might expect, but confirm mileage limits if you're planning the full peninsula loop.
